Printing, copying and scanning (PCAS)

Photocopiers / printers at the EFL

In order to photocopy, print or scan an item in the EFL you will need to have a PCAS account. Please read through the information on this page for further details.

Our photocopiers are located at the top of the stairs in the Gallery (see our floorplan for further details).

These are also where you can collect any of your 'sent' print jobs. For further information on how to do this, please see the guides on printing, listed below, under the heading How do I photocopy, scan or print?

Printing, copying and scanning (PCAS)

How do I set up an account?

PCAS accounts use Bodleian Libraries username and password (which is also used to login to reading room PCs and Bodleian Libraries WiFi). View information about this account is available from: http://www.bodleian.ox.ac.uk/using/passwords

You can add credit to your account (using your credit or debit card) by visiting PCAS Webpay or request cash tops at libraries which handle cash, and using the cash loader at the Main Enquiry Desk in the Bodleian Library.

Please note: setting up a PCAS account does not guarantee access to the Bodleian Libraries. Admission is only for holders of a valid Library card.

How much does it cost?

The current costs for printing, copying and scanning are in the table below.

Printing

Printing from computers is also managed by the PCAS system. You can pay for prints using your PCAS account. Prints can be collected from any copier/printer in any of the Bodleian Libraries. Log onto the copier/printer with your PCAS username/password and all print jobs sent to your account will be waiting for you. Print jobs are purged after 72 hours.

Laptop and remote printing system

RemotePrint is a web based system that allows you to send print jobs from your laptop, home PC and mobile phone to PCAS. You can then collect your printing at any of the Bodleian Libraries copiers/printers.
